Is this bullying

A few years ago when I was in school my best friend had another group of friends who didn’t like me, it got to the point where they created a group chat and talked about me and how toxic of a friend I was and how she needed to get rid of me at the time I told her how it made me feel and she didn’t really care, then a few weeks later her friend said that if I came near her or my friend then she would beat me up this lead to me leaving school and having a mental breakdown and when I was in hospital because of this she said I hope she dies

This whole subject has came up a few times over the last couple years but never to this point where I feel like I’m being manipulated or gaslit into believing that it wasn’t bullying

Recently it’s came back up as my friend started dating her friend that I feel was bullying me and I’ve decided that this among other things that have happened that it’s probably best to distance myself from her and the friendship during the conversation we’re currently having her and her girlfriend are trying to convince me that it didn’t happen like that and that I’m the only one who remembers it so it’s slander

I just don’t know how to feel about it because it’s starting to impact my mental health again and this is what I wanted to avoid and it’s not helping that my friend is now taking her girlfriends side
